[Diabetes-Talk] difficulty testing my sugar level

[jamielgurganus at gmail.com]

I'm not one to lotion as often as I should except in the winter.  I did
visit my dermatologist one time and was given some medicated lotion that
didn't help the callouses.  They are better different times of the year.
Right now, only one of my fingers has one.

Do you lotion after every testing? I've been testing for over 30 years, and
I lotion often, and I don't often get calluses. And I test 6 to 8 times a
day.

Does it really work?  I sure would like to try to get one.  My fingers are
so calloused from 35 years of testing.

Could the Freestyle Libre be helpful here?  That needs a prescription and
scans your blood sugar without you needing to extract blood.
